Apple has unveiled the Apple Watch Series 10 at its 'Glowtime' iPhone 16 event, and preorders are live now. If you want to get your hands on Apple's latest and greatest smartwatch, I'm breaking down everything you need to know about Apple Watch 10 preorders, including the all-important cost, how to order, and key new features.

Pre-order the Apple Watch 10

The Apple Watch 10 is the successor to the Apple Watch 9, and pricing starts at $399 / £399. The Series 10 gets a significant design upgrade, and features the largest and most advanced display we've seen on an Apple Watch – it's a wide-angle OLED display that's 40% brighter than its predecessor, making it easier to read apps and texts.

It's the thinest and lightest mainline Apple Watch yet, and other new features include Apple's new S10 chipset, sleep apnea detection, depth gauge, and water temperature sensor. The Watch 10 is also available in a range of stunning new materials and colors.

While historically, preorders begin the Friday following Apple launch events, Apple Watch 10 preorders are available from today, with shipping from Friday, September 20.
